It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

Ive done for nearly 5 years and had barely any cancellations or drop offs because of wfp system only reason it doesent work is if you dont purify properly

yes I do get the odd customer that comment about cleaning in the rain, but overall most of them are okay about it

i work in light rain and most seem to be ok.but i also find that when we have  endless days of rain,in changes the customers mind set,and thats when i get the most negative feed back from customers.

I find the rain affects the window cleaner more than the windows,Some custies dont like it but if im well away from home they have gotta be done,
One thing that is a problem in the rain (and wind) though is windows under trees or wall growing Ivy/plants, when water runs through the foliage and drips onto the glass it always leaves them dirty Suppose it would be the same trad but if you have a real 'grumbler' then its something to note.
